  • Rethinking the Centrifugal Fan Selection
    The centrifugal fan is one of the most prevalent fan types used in the HVAC industry today. Two main categories of centrifugal fans are those that use impellers with forward curved (FC) blades and those that use impellers with backward curved (BC) blades. Each category is descriptive
  • What are the Basic Types of Centrifugal Fans and their Advantages?
    There are six basic types of centrifugal fans. Each of these fan types has advantages and disadvantages. Care needs to be taken when selecting the fan design for their ability to perform reliably in the customer 's system.
  • Axial vs. Centrifugal Fans
    Fans are used in several industries and applications to move air for heat transfer, (such as convection cooling and heating), air exchange (such as ventilation and exhaust) or filtration. They typically consist of a moving element like blades or vanes, connected through a shaft to a motor
  • Integral Motors for Centrifugal Fans
    The most common power source for fans is the electric motor. A motor's service life is largely dependent upon proper selection and installation. Since the motor and its control circuitry represent a substantial portion of the cost of many fan systems, they deserve careful consideration. This Letter
  • Passive noise reduction - options for axial and centrifugal fans, Appliance DESIGN, February 2015
    One undisputed requirement for a high performance system is the. ability to closely match its output to the actual demand. Comfort, health, process variance, sound emissions, and energy performance benefit from enabling motors for variable speed operation. What are the potential side effects of this
  • Pelonis: The Different Types of Fans Used in the HVAC Industry
    A fan is a key component of any HVAC system. The most common HVAC fans are axial, forward-curved centrifugal, and backward-inclined, and each is uniquely suited to certain purposes. It's important to understand each fan's differences in energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and noise
  • Energy-Saving Potential of Solid-State AC Drives in VAV Systems
    Centrifugal fans are used on many industrial and commercial applications. Many of these fans are operated at fixed speeds, but could provide energy savings through adjustable speed operation. Reviewing the affinity laws for centrifugal fans and a typical operating cycle for a centrifugal
  • Proper Selection of Pressure Blowers
    In general terms, a pressure blower provides relatively high pressure at low volume when compared to other types of centrifugal fans. For purposes of this letter, fans with volumes. to 10,000 CFM with pressures to 80" WG are considered pressure blowers. Typical applications require constant
  • Closed Loop Flow Control Using Instrumented Inlet Nozzles
    Closed-loop flow control of centrifugal fans that use either the M3G112 or M3G150 motor can be achieved by using the free LISA fan programming software and taking advantage of the. following capabilities of these motors: - ability to accept any external sensor type and measurement range. - ability
  • Airflow Measurement using Instrumented Inlet Rings
    ebm-papst offers a simple airflow measurement technique for backward-curved centrifugal fans using modified versions of inlet rings (IR) typically used with these fans to maximize performance. The technique is based on the Bernoulli and Continuity equations, which allow calculation of flow through
  • Inside the box: Ventilation and air-conditioning technology Engineered Systems
    ebm-papst's RadiPac EC centrifugal fan assembly incorporates all. components required for ventilation. Boasting up to 14,700 CFM at 4 in.wg, this high performance series is available in drive capacities of up to 12 kW and sizes 250 mm to 1250 mm in impeller outer. diameter. As a standard, all fans
  • An Exhaust Solution for Controlled Environments
    to 5 F. Mixed-flow impeller fans typically consume about 25% less energy than conventional centrifugal fans, and offer faster payback periods as well. Typical energy reduction is $0.44 per cubic foot per minute (CFM) at $0.10/kilowatt-hour, providing an approximate two-year return on investment
